snapdragon: OnePlus 10 could come with Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, OnePlus 10R with Dimensity 9000: Report
There could be a OnePlus 10 R model which will come equipped with the MediaTek Dimensity 9000 chipset, instead of shipping with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset, claims Android Central. The other model is expected to be the OnePlus 10, which is rumoured to come with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1. You might ask why OnePlus is going for different processors within the same lineup. It could be due to the availability of the chips and the regions for which the phones are intended. The OnePlus 10 is the standard phone in the line up which will most likely see a global release while the 10R could be meant for specific markets like India and other Asian countries. Also, use of Qualcomm's modems in the US are expected to make the Snapdragon chip perform optimally.
OnePlus has mostly relied on Qualcomm for its chipsets, but has started to lean towards MediaTek chipsets too, Nord 2 being an example. As far as performance is concerned when it comes to Dimensity 9000, it is expected to give tough competition to Snapdragon 8 Gen 1. Both the OnePlus 10 and 10 R are expected to be launched in Q2 2022, as per the report.
